Due to Gao Mingcheng's insistence, the investigators temporarily added one.
Gao Guobing said angrily: "You follow us, and even if there is a situation, don't come forward. Do you understand?"
"Hey, okay." Gao Mingcheng responded with a smile.
Nowadays, the police station is short of manpower and has not recruited a large number of police assistants. Therefore, even for this murder case, there are not many people handling the case. Gao Guobing took two of his men all over the county looking for people, and Xiao Song stayed at the police station. organising materials.
It was also because of the lack of manpower that Gao Mingcheng insisted on finding the murderer. After Gao Guobing thought again and again, he agreed to let Gao Mingcheng follow him.
Gao Guobing thought that it would be better for Gao Mingcheng to follow him than to wander around alone. He was not afraid of not finding the murderer, but he was afraid that if he found the murderer, something would happen to Gao Mingcheng.
They have three pistols here. Even if the murderer has a pistol, he may not be their opponent.
With this idea in mind, Gao Mingcheng was accepted.
But Gao Mingcheng quickly made a suggestion to Gao Guobing: "Uncle, the police station is short of manpower, but we can mobilize the masses to help us find him!"
Gao Guobing frowned and was about to rebuke angrily when Gao Mingcheng said again: "Let's go find those gangsters who often commit crimes. They are most familiar with the streets and alleys of the county and know where to hide after committing crimes. We don't need to They are in direct conflict with the murderer, and all they need is useful information."
Gao Mingcheng's suggestion was equivalent to recruiting gangsters to become police informants.
After listening, Gao Guobing's frown relaxed again.
At first he thought Gao Mingcheng wanted the people to find the murderer, but if he asked the gangsters to provide information, it would be nothing.
In fact, when Gao Guobing investigated this case, he investigated the victim's social relations and asked people nearby about the situation at the time and whether they had seen the murderer.
I even asked the gangsters working in that area, but in the end I didn't get much results.
Because the murderer was not a local of theirs, but had come all the way here. Not long after he arrived, he committed the crime because he wanted to make money, and then escaped. Therefore, the locals did not know much about this murderer. many.
Therefore, this case is difficult to handle, and Gao Guobing is under great pressure.
After solving this case, he may take a further step in his official career. This is both motivation and pressure.
Therefore, when Gao Mingcheng proposed to let gangsters in the county become informants and provide information, Gao Guobing agreed after thinking for a few seconds!
There is strength in numbers. If more people help find the murderer, he might be able to catch the murderer!
"Xiao Zhang, Xiao Luo, you two go find someone and ask them to search the entire county for me today and tomorrow!" Gao Guobing said to his two men.
The two men immediately went to do errands, riding bicycles and splitting up.
Not long after, two people were brought back. As soon as Gao Mingcheng saw those two people, he immediately felt that the world was really small.
Those two men happened to be the same people who had tried to rob him.
One is Xiao Song's cousin He Dayou, and the other is the bald man with the scar.
When the two people saw Gao Mingcheng, their expressions were a little unnatural, their eyes flickering, as if they didn't intend to recognize each other.
"You all know the case I'm handling recently, right?" Gao Guobing looked at the two of them with majestic eyes and a serious tone.
It is said that the people do not fight with the officials, not to mention that these two people have not so clean background, so they behave very well in front of Gao Guobing.
They already knew in advance why Gao Guobing came to them, so they made a statement on the spot, saying that they would work hard to help the police search for the murderer, and they would tell the police once they found relevant information.
Just as the two were about to leave, Gao Mingcheng stopped them and said, "Are there many places selling noodles in the county? You guys, pay attention and see who can eat noodles three times a day! Well, you can also eat steamed buns!" "
Gao Guobing frowned and looked at Gao Mingcheng, and the others also looked at him in confusion.
Gao Mingcheng explained: "I have read the case report and said that the murderer was brought home by the victim. The victim's neighbor saw him at that time and talked to him. The victim once said that the murderer was hungry and really pitiful, so he brought him back to have some food. .”
"When I investigated the murder scene afterwards, I did find a bowl of rice, but most of the rice in the bowl was left, but the food was completely eaten. Therefore, I made a bold guess that maybe the murderer was not from our county, or even from our county. Southerners! Otherwise, if you are so hungry, why do you only eat vegetables and not finish all the rice?"
"My guess may be wrong, but it is also a direction to look for."
After listening to Gao Mingcheng's analysis, Gao Guobing felt his eyes light up. He didn't pay much attention to the bowl of rice at the scene of the murder.
The two police officers, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Luo, instantly looked at Gao Mingcheng differently.
Gao Guobing said to the bald ones: "Well, when you are looking for someone, pay close attention to see if there are any outsiders. As long as they are outsiders, no matter where they are, you should come to the police station and inform them."
"Okay." He Dayou and Bald Head both nodded in agreement.
They left quickly, gathered their men, and began to search for the murderer throughout the county.
Although they are gangsters, they have not committed any crime of murder. Now someone in the county has been exterminated, and it may have been done by outsiders. Therefore, they are all very angry and want to contribute to the police station. As soon as possible Find the murderer and bring him to justice.
Although a group of informants were temporarily developed, Gao Guobing and others could not return to the police station to rest and had to continue searching.
About half an hour later, He Dayou came over with a young man.
As soon as they saw Gao Guobing, the young man's face turned red with nervousness. It seemed that people like them who were accustomed to petty theft felt guilty when they saw people from the police station!
He Dayou pointed at the young man and said: "Chief Gao, this boy has news! He said that he had seen a foreigner from the north in an alley near the train station. The foreigner spoke a foreign dialect. , and also bought noodles to eat. We locals can only eat one bowl of noodles at most, but the foreigners ate two big bowls! So this kid took a second look."
"Quickly, describe that person's appearance to the chief executive and the others!" He Dayou patted the young man and signaled that it was his turn to speak.
Although the young man was nervous, he still said: "The man was very tall and strong. He was wearing an old tattered cotton-padded jacket. He had a beard all over his face and his hair was messy, as if he hadn't washed it for a long time. Oh, and his eyebrows were very thick. Thicker than the average person!”
Gao Guobing said seriously: "Can you still find this person?"
The young man said, "It's hard to say. I've only seen him once. If the boss hadn't specifically mentioned the outsiders from the north, I wouldn't have been able to remember."
"Let's go to the train station to look for him now!" Gao Mingcheng said immediately. He knew that the murderer would leave tomorrow, but he was not sure whether the murderer had been hiding near the train station.
Now someone has seen the murderer there, so the murderer should be hiding near the train station!
Gao Mingcheng's sudden interruption aroused everyone's attention, but Gao Guobing immediately said: "Let's go! Go to the train station!"
With his words, the group immediately headed towards the train station.
Several bicycles were speeding down the street, carrying an aura of urgency.
